[K12OSN] Most Bash scripting questions? :)

[austinsr]

Huck,

This is fairly simple.
cat .bash_history |grep home >>/root/logfile.log
This will create a file in /root/ called logfile.log that contains all 
lines with the word "home" in them.

Did you need to remove these entries from .bash_history?  Is this what 
you meant by "strip out"?
